Once upon a time, in the sparkling sunshine of California, where the palm trees sway gently to the rhythm of the ocean breeze and the mountains stand tall with their majestic beauty, was a vibrant tribe of tiny artists known as the 'Sketching Sunchasers'. These weren't your run-of-the-mill kiddos! No sir-ee, they were a lively bunch of little Picassos, with pencils for wands and papers for magic carpets. Their drawings would come alive with vibrant colors that would put the most exquisite sunset to shame. They weren't just drawing; they were sketching their dreams on a canvas of infinite possibilities. Heading this extraordinary brigade was an imaginary character named Doodle Dude, a pencil with a cowboy hat and a bewitching grin. Doodle Dude was no ordinary pencil, his graphite tip was sharpened not just to sketch, but also to tickle out giggles and laughter from everyone. He had a contagious and a spontaneous sense of humor so powerful that even the grumpiest of grizzly bears couldn’t resist chuckling. With his unmatchable wit, Doodle Dude would often entertain the Sunchasers with puns and silly jokes. "Why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything! Got it? They 'make up' everything!" he'd chuckle at his own joke while the children laughed, rolling around in the California grass. And so, in the golden state of California, under the ever-watchful eye of the sun, the Sketching Sunchasers and their beloved Doodle Dude painted their dreams, giggled, and made memories that were as warm and radiant as the Californian sun itself. Life was one big, beautiful sketchpad!

Parents looking for an activity that will cultivate creativity and self-confidence in their children will find just that in my art classes. Children will learn a classical method of drawing and painting that will stay with them for a lifetime. They will begin the program with drawing pictures and coloring them with pastels. Once they have mastered drawing, they may progress to watercolor painting. With the step-by-step tools they will be given at the first class, children can build a drawing and add colorful, true to life effects to make a beautiful work of art. In my classes, each child works independently and progresses at their own pace. This weekly, 90 minute session allows for ample time for children to take their time, clean up, and finish class with a mini art show. With the guidance of my one-on-one instruction, children will gain self-confidence and find joy in discovering their own creative successes. These classes provide a fun and supportive environment where children can express their creativity and develop technical skills that will last a lifetime.
